HRG Assessment - Linux Migration

HRG Assessment - Linux Migration

The migration from proprietary UNIX and legacy hardware and software-based environments to Linux on x86 Intel architecture (IA) is an effective way to take cost and complexity out of IT. Recently HRG interviewed IT professionals, hardware vendors, and software vendors who have been or soon will be involved in migrations to Linux. This paper explores migration to Linux as well as server, application, and work load virtualization and consolidation as customers search for more effective ways to remove cost and complexity from their information technology infrastructure.
